If a "stop" on the mysql init script does not work, the init script should be removed.

Despite the good intentions, that never actually taught people about the correct interfaces. Now with the advent of co-installability of multiple init systems, users may have systemd, upstart, and sysv-init all installed on users system and have init.d scripts / upstart jobs / systemd units all available. To avoid any daubt, we should support executing /etc/init.d/ scripts which may call into upstart, or into systemd, or actually execute the script in question depending on whether there is native configuration for that particular job and which init system we are running under. [ test case ] Invoking init.d script should invoke upstart commands, for example: $ /etc/init.d/ssh status ssh start/running, process 4620 $ /etc/init.d/ssh stop stop: Rejected send message, 1 matched rules; type="method_call", sender=":1.2469694" (uid=1000 pid=3908 comm="stop ssh ") interface="com.ubuntu.Upstart0_6.Job" member="Stop" error name="(unset)" requested_reply="0" destination="com.ubuntu.Upstart" (uid=0 pid=1 comm="/sbin/init") $ sudo /etc/init.d/ssh stop ssh stop/waiting $ sudo /etc/init.d/ssh start ssh start/running, process 5373 $ sudo /etc/init.d/ssh restart ssh stop/waiting ssh start/running, process 5405 Description: Ubuntu 13.10 Release: 13.10 mysql-server-5.5: Installed: 5.5.35-0ubuntu0.13.10.1 Candidate: 5.5.35-0ubuntu0.13.10.1 Version table: *** 5.5.35-0ubuntu0.13.10.1 0 500 http://us-east-1.ec2.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ saucy-updates/main amd64 Packages 500 http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ saucy-security/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 5.5.32-0ubuntu7 0 500 http://us-east-1.ec2.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ saucy/main amd64 Packages In Ubuntu 13.10, the Upstart job and the init.d script do not work properly. In previous versions, the init.d script was a symlink to the wrapper script around upstart (/lib/init/upstart-job). This conflict means that if the server was started using the init.d script, upstart does not recognize that the server is running and will attempt to start a second instance of mysqld. Also problematic is that if the upstart job is started using the service or start commands, the init.d script's "stop" function runs a mysql shutdown, but upstart simply restarts mysqld (because it's marked respawn in the upstart config).
